Businessman Michel Issa will serve as the ambassador to Lebanon, and former Dearborn Heights mayor Bill Bazzi has been confirmed as ambassador to Tunisia. Issa has publicly stated that Hezbollah must be disarmed for Lebanon to have a future, viewing the group as an Iranian proxy. Bazzi's appointment is seen as a reward for his loyalty and his role in helping secure the Arab-American vote in Michigan during the 2024 election.
